A Seddie Fanfic! I had written for Seddie before, but I think it was a little too angsty for me, so I decided to take it down. Not sure if this should be a oneshot or a multi chap, but for now I'll keep it a one shot. I don't think I want to start a long story quite yet though…Anyway, I know this is suckish, but…yea :P
Now, without further ado, here is…
You Should Have Lied
Inspired by the song by Stephanie Mcintosh
It doesn't matter
That you had the courage to tell me
The easy way out
Was to free up your guilt, laid it on me
What do I care?
If it didn't really mean a thing why'd you do it?
I'm standing here
Looking at someone who doesn't
Know they blew it, yeah
"Sam…I'm so sorry…" the brunette boy laid a comforting hand on my shoulder, but I shook it off. Of all people, I didn't need his sympathy now.
"I don't want to hear it, Fredward. Here's the plan- you forget everything I said this evening, 'kay?"
I walked out of my senior prom with his voice shouting for me to come back; my heart broken beyond repair, and a single liquid shard running down my face.
[Chorus]
You should have lied
'Cause your stupid mistake
Made my world crash down
Now its goodbye
No you can't take it back
Once the truth has come out of your mouth
So you tried to be honest
But honesty blew it this time
You should have lied
You could have lied
Her words ran through my head all night
"Freddie…I think I, maybe, kinda, feel something for you…"
I reeled back, shocked. "Sam…I'm dating Carly…we can't…you and I…not now…" I stuttered, still shaken by her muttered confession
Her blue eyes hardened once more, and I could see no trace of the hope that had once inhabited them.
"Just…forget it, I guess…" she turned away from me, looking for the exit.
"Sam…I'm so sorry…"
"I don't want to hear it, Fredward. Here's the plan- you forget everything I said this evening, 'kay?" She stormed out, her long blond hair whipping from her right shoulder to her left.
If I was finally dating Carly, the girl I'd been chasing after for years, then why did my heart feel so heavy as I tried, in vain, to call Sam back?
If a tree falls inside of a forest and nobody hears it
It won't affect anybody 'cause no one will miss it
Maybe it's because I knew that she wouldn't come back this time.
What would I care
If you were dying from the guilt of keeping a secret?
This isn't fair
'cause now I've gotta be the one dealing with it, oh
[Chorus]
I don't get it
Where was your conscience when
You were with her
Couldn't you hear it scream out?
"I quit!" I shouted in my former best friend's face as Carly threw insult after insult into my face, and Freddie stood by, his face obscured by her dark brown hair.
I threw one last, slightly desperate glance at the man I had fallen for, then slammed the door to the iCarly studio for the last time, smirking when I heard the glass on the door shatter and crash to the floor.
[Chorus]
It doesn't matter
That you had the courage to tell me
I, Sam Puckett, was a 22 year old woman on my way to become a real estate agent in a miniscule town in New Jersey. My unplanned child, a result of a drunken one night stand with a man I never saw again, was almost due. I had no friends, having left my former best friend and her boyfriend- surely now husband- and I was still madly in love with that man: Freddie Benson.
